It has some casters missing and a slight bend on the tray but otherwise in decent condition. I will be moving next week so you will have to come next week or the week after to dismantle it yourself.
Offers open. I would like help to put the new one together which is a 5 minute drive so am willing to negotiate on that and getting my macaw to his new home. I am in London sw14 moving to sw13. Call me on 07773 777391

I have started to knock up an outdoor aviery / flight for the budgies with around 6' 6' headroom inside. It will when finished be on and round the corner of the house, one leg will be 2ft x 6ft made from wood and 1' x 1/2' mesh with a solid roof (the mesh will be on the inside). The second leg round the corner will be 3ft wide and again 6ft long with double doors, this section will be half mesh and half shed for not so nice days. Heating and lighting will be provided inside to keep them warm.

I am in the early stages of building a large outside cage to house a pair of large parrots, hopefully macaws. It will consist of a very large full height cage on the outside of the garage, with a cowl over the top to protect against rain and sun and a smaller cage on the inside of the garage with access gained through the nest box opening. I am considering insulating and heating the inside cage for the winter months.&160;Has anyone experience of large parrots/macaws needs from an outsi...

He is a B/L bird but I cannot talk about him yet but when I do you will be amazed! Cannot afford a new one unfortunately but really need one soon. If anyone has one to donate or sell please let me know. I am going to the 3 counties show and could collect from there if it helps.

At the moment, I'm rather struck by the Ferplast Piano 7, but I don't know if this is a good size or not. I don't have space for one of the massive 'aviery' style cages, the space I'm thinking about putting the cage is roughly 3 feet by 2 feet. Also, this may seem like a really stupid question, but I've also been considering 'rat' cages to use, as from what I've read on the 'net they're an ok size, and I'm ...
